I would get a Luffy or Zoro, or both even. Perhaps a Goku. Perhaps a picture with like Luffy, Naruto, Ichigo, and Goku all standing together.
Bugs bunny. Or maybe all of the looney tunes. If I could get the right picture drawn by a good enough artist, I would get the Looney tunes characters on my back, but have all of them be wearing combat gear holding guns, just to make it interesting.
Tom and Jerry.
A lot of anime characters and cartoon characters and characters from video games that look cool. Those are things that I have always loved and always will love.

Or this. Maybe Cloud on a Chocobo. Any FF7 character would be cool to have.Get a Chocobo!

Its cool, but I wouldnt get a tat on my neck. I would do upper arms or my back, shoulders, chest, or perhaps legs. I most likely wouldnt get tattoos in places that arent easy to hide with regular clothing, as no matter what the meaning behind them, they will make it harder to find a good job if your trying to get into a professional career. You could have an IQ of 160, 3 college degrees, 20 professional references, 10 years experience, but you get covered i tattoos, all they will see is some guy covered in tattoos.
While I do get what your saying,The world is evolving beyond just looks,While although there will always be people who base things on "looks" I wouldnt work for a company or person like that anyways,I am me with or without the ink.

I have 11 Tattoo's 4 on my hands & 2 on my neck :L I have a government job. Sure you get dirty looks but I'm well respected. If you have a strong work ethic, people are gonna focus on that, not your tattoo's.
EDIT; & I'm only 20 :L

Well yeah, if you get the job and if your a good worker. But I was just saying it will decrease your chances of them giving you a chance to prove yourself because most, not all but most, employers would be biased against someone with tattoos, and will make assumptions based on that.
Appearance doesnt define a person, but the first impression you get on someone when you first meet them will be based on their appearance, and in a lot of occasions people will draw assumptions on you based on that appearance rather than get to know you. A lot of professional goody-type people will assume that someone with tattoos is a gangster or ***** or thug without getting to know them. Not all people are like that, but there are millions of people who are.
Like even I could be guilty some times. I would assume someone wearing baggy clothes and listening to 50 Cent would be more likely to rob me than someone in a business suit listening to classical music, and in a lot of occasions I would be wrong, but in most occasions I would be right. A lot of gangster-type guys get a lot of tattoos in visible places, and a lot of slutty girls get tattoos. Its just the image it puts out isn't always a positive one, even if it has a positive meaning behind it.

No, not in todays society. When I applied for my job I had 50mm (2 inch) tunnels in my lobes as well as a majority of my tattoos & an undercut :L I was 19 when I got the job & I bet 5 other guys, who looked clean cut and respectable because I showed the most enthusiasm towards the position.
tbh i get what your saying but luckily these days tats are more acceptable and people realize it does not mean your a badass just because you have one personally i still would not tat up my hands or my neck i think that is stupid because i am not ashamed of any of my tats i wear them proudly but there is still occasions id like to be able to look respectable like when im out with y family for a nice dinner and occasions like that but for those who do its not my body so i dont care really

I would get them anywhere anyways depending on what I wanted and liked. I have no references no work ethic I'm lazy and I have a criminal record so I will never get a government job anyways. But I don't want to be like my grandfather who is in his 60s now and looks ridiculous because of all the really dumb tattoos he got in his partying days in the 70s.

Seriously, go for it. The thing is, the 'cool' ideas for tattoos are a lot different than they were in the 70's.

Thats my point. I don't want to look like an idiot when I'm 60 and whats cool is way different. I would get tattoos of what I like, but I am quite broke, and any money I do have goes into video games.
